Ad-writing contest for menstrual pads, United
Kingdom, 1990

The English magazine Company
sponsored a contest to write an
advertisement for Dr White's Shapes, -
the abbreviation for doctor gets no
punctuation in British English - a
menstrual pad.

In July 1990 it published the
results, the second
page of which I print below.
